The lauda, a type of vernacular sacred song first developed by St Francis of Assisi, is one of the most remarkable expressions of popular religious music to have emerged in Italy between the Middle Ages and the present day. Here La Reverdie presents a rich and varied selection of pieces, addressed to the Virgin and the saints, taken from the two substantial laude collections that have come down to us: those of Cortona [c. 1270] and Florence [c. 1320]
